    Professor Chen Ping Yang's early significant contributions to mathematical physics

    In the 60's Professor Chen Ping Yang with Professor Chen Ning Yang published several seminal papers on the study of Bethe's hypothesis for various problems of physics. The works on the lattice gas model, critical behaviour in liquid-gas transition, the one-dimensional (1D) Heisenberg spin chain, and the thermodynamics of 1D delta-function interacting bosons are significantly important and influential in the fields of mathematical physics and statistical mechanics. In particular, the work on the 1D Heisenberg spin chain led to subsequent developments in many problems using Bethe's hypothesis. The method which Yang and Yang proposed to treat the thermodynamics of the 1D system of bosons with a delta-function interaction leads to significant applications in a wide range of problems in quantum statistical mechanics. The Yang and Yang thermodynamics has found beautiful experimental verifications in recent years.Comment: 5 pages + 3 figure

    Uniform disconnectedness and Quasi-Assouad Dimension

    Full text link
    The uniform disconnectedness is an important invariant property under bi-Lipschitz mapping, and the Assouad dimension dimAX<1\dim _{A}X<1 implies the uniform disconnectedness of XX. According to quasi-Lipschitz mapping, we introduce the quasi-Assouad dimension dimqA\dim _{qA} such that dimqAX<1\dim _{qA}X<1 implies its quasi uniform disconnectedness. We obtain dimBXdimqAXdimAX\overline{\dim } _{B}X\leq \dim _{qA}X\leq \dim _{A}X and compute the quasi-Assouad dimension of Moran set
